One night last week William Read
ner went into the beer-doggery Of
Charles Koerner, in St. Louis, and
drank two glasses of beer. He aad no
money to pay for it-perhaps had spent
all his earnings with the Devils Imp
who kept the den, and yet, according
to the lofty view taken of the ''busi-
ness by the fellows who conduct it,
he was guilty Of an offense which re-
quired blood. To fail to pay ten cents
where he had perhaps spent hundreds
of dollars, was an impardonable offense
in the eyes of the Imp.
Consequently he gathered heavy
stone match-safe, and struck Readner
in the temple, when the latter fell
dead. This was personal liberty"
The report says that "the place was a
favorite public resort" That's it! A
favorite place for the gathering of
public-spirited citizens, who ought to
have the good of the community at
heart. Such places are what some
men of intelligence attempt to hold
up as valuable adjuncts to civilization
There's nothing but murder and ruin
In the whole internal business. Keep
away from it.

The Baltimore Underwater, an In
surance paper, thus speaks of excess
i've beer-drinkers as subjects of life
insurance:
1--WE have closely watched the heavy
beer-drinkers in the community, with
reference to their mortality ratio, for
more than twenty years, and our OBJ
servations show that out of every
hundred who saturate themselves in
this immoderate way, not more than
five out of every hundred pass the age
of fifty-three. Those that escape
Bright's disease or uramic poisoning
become victims of cirrhesis, or fatty
degeneration, or erysipelas, or apo
plexy. One or other of these fatal
diseases invariably gives the finishing
touch to the splendid physique
about which Thomann rants long be-
fore the period of natural expectation.
If beer-drinkers choose to satisfy
their thirst with their favorite bever-
age. that is one thing; but it they are
led by Thomann's lying statistics into
the belief that beer will proloDg their
lives, or that life companies can be
fooled into acceptance OF walking
beer-barrels as healthy risks, that is
quite another
That writer talks plain, practical
common sense. The idea Of swilling
beer for health, is as ridiculous as that
of smoking in powder magazine for
for safety. There is no health in the
internal stuff, and ninety-nine in
every hundred men who make that
excuse make it-not because they
want health, but because they want
beer. Within the past five years no
less than four men have died in Jack
son, the death of whom was the di-
rect result Of swilling beer. This is
said not in reproach of the men, but
of the horrible practice. There was
a close similarity in all these deaths.
A short name for such disease would
be beer-rot. Instead of being healthy,
the stuff is just the contrary. The
fat made by the stuff is a good deal
the same as that which enlarges
dead body, just as the final decay
sets in. There could be nothing more
horribly and criminally foolish than
the recommending of the swilling of
beer for health. There's no health
in it.

The action of the Memorial Asso-
citation of Sprinfeld, Illinois, regard
ing the remains of Araham Lincoln,
is fine commentary upon the civil
zation Of the times. The body has
not been in the place prepared for it
in the monument, for a long time,
and its location is said to have been
known to but few people. The object
in the hiding-away process was to
prevent the remains from being stolen.
They are now placed in the receptacle
in the monument. 1t does seem
strange that in a land where one
Church denomination alone spends a
million a year for missions, the ma
tives cannot bury their dead without
fear of having the bodies stolen.

A party of Quakers called onPresi-
dent Cleveland few days ago with a
paper, adopted by their Society, and
praying that the President use his in
huence to settle the Fisheries trouble
by peaceable means, and in no event
resort to war and bloodshed. The
President promised to consider their
appeal. There has not appeared any
indication, however, that Grover ever
intended to fight anybody. He is not
the type of man one would select as
specimen of warlike ferocity.

The matter of County Re-union n
for all Soldiers and Sailors in Jack
son county is taking shape, and it is
quite probable that such a meeting
will be held during the Summer or
Fall of this year The proposed gath
ering would include the Sons of Vet
Grams also. Let every old soldier in
the county constitute himself at once
committee of one to work this mat
ter up. Let US get together, comrades,
and have jolly time in talking over
the old scenes, and old trials. Each
year the circle of those who bore
arms during the Rebellion is becom-
ing narrower. On each succeeding
evening the last tattoo is sounded for
some old soldier. The march from
the camps of time to the plains of
eternity is going on rapidly. As the
circle narrows, the ties of friendship
should intensity. The same chivalrous
companionship which made men
worthy soldiers during the dark days,
should bind them together as worthy
citizens now. Such a Reunion would
have meaning above and beyond the
mere reviving of old friendships. We
would all be made the better for the
meeting, the clasping of hands, and the
rehearsal of our experiences in the
olden days. We trust that every G..
A. r. Post in the county, as well as
every old soldier, will take hold of
this matter at once. 1t should be and
could be, made the grandest meeting
ever held in the county.
